Religious but Narcissistic - Maamar Purim 5716 #2 Mar 14, 2024

Show notes

A Relationship with G-d Is About Liberation from My Coping Mechanisms

This text-based class, the second in a series, is on a Maamar, a Chassidic discourse, presented by the Lubavitcher Rebbe at a Farbrengen, on Sunday, Purim 5716, February 26, 1956. The class was taught by Rabbi YY Jacobson on Thursday, Parshas Pekudei, 4 Adar II, 5784, March 14, 2024, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY.

“When you don’t know how beautiful you are:” our decline begins with the absence of self-respect and self-love. The class explores the uniqueness of Purim by explaining two states of life of the Jewish people and of every Jew, represented by the two names Rachel and Esther. The first is when I am rooted and anchored in my soul, the second is when I am unaware of my own inner Divine beauty and dignity.

The maamar explains two forms of spiritual beauty, "toar" and "mareh," physique and face, representing the positive and negative mitzvos, and the beauty that comes from integration, when every mitzvah is interlinked to every other mitzvah. When you touch the Divinity of a mitzvah, you are not stuck in your comfort zone, and in your ego, but connected to the Divine who transcends structure.

The Most INSANE Purim Story: When Rabah “Slaughtered” the Ego of Reb Zeira - Women's Purim Class Mar 12, 2024

Show notes

How Do I Find Bliss in My Challenging Life? On Purim, Two Sages Provided the Answer

This class was presented on Tuesday, Parshas Pekudei, 25 Adar II, 5784, March 12, 2024, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY.

In one of the most bizarre Talmudic stories (Megilah 7b), two of the greatest Talmudic sages feast on Purim together. They are inebriated and one of them slaughters his friend. The next day he brings him back to life. The following year he invites his colleague for another Purim meal.

This fascinating class, based on an address of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, re-invents the meaning of the story, and applies it to our daily opportunity to link heaven and earth.

Purim represents the gift to experience an ego-death, the portal to true inner connection and bliss.
